Warragul Race 10

Paua Of Buddy At Stud

Prize Money: $3,360

DIPLOMAT (2) goes very well here including three wins. Recorded a 2.25 lengths win (17.05) in a Grade 5 H last time at Healesville. Looks suited and should go close. SHORT STRAW TREV (7) showed blistering pace early and gave a sight when in the minors, beaten 4 lengths over 460m this track in 26.13. Has won two of four starts from this draw. Can measure up. BANDIT BARBIE (5) produced a moderate effort last time when sixth at this track over 460m behind Have A Crack (26.40) in a Grade 4/5. Can figure in the finish. RETALIATION (1) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (26.13) over 460m at this track. Has an exceptional 25.67 best time at this course and distance. Big chance.
